Root distribution of rootstocks for 'Tahiti' lime
Field studies on citrus roots are important for genetic selection of cultivars and for management practices such as localized irrigation and fertilization. To characterize root systems of six rootstocks, taking into consideration chemical and physical characteristics of a clayey Typic Hapludox of th...

Raf., 'C13' citrange [C. sinensis (L.) Osb. x P. trifoliata (L.)

The effective distance of 80 % of roots measured from the tree trunk exceeded the tree canopy for P. trifoliata, 'Sunki' mandarin, and 'Volkamer' and 'Africa Rough' lemons.http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0103-90162004000100016Citrus latifoliaroot systemtrench profile methodsoil bulk density |
